Association of the forced oscillation technique with negative expiratory pressure in COPD

Highlights • Expiratory flow limitation (EFL) is common in patients with severe COPD. • The negative expiratory pressure (NEP) technique is the gold standard for detecting EFL. • We assessed the association of the forced oscillation technique (FOT) with NEP. • Respiratory system reactance at 5 Hz wa...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Expiratory flow limitation (EFL) is common in patients with severe COPD. • The negative expiratory pressure (NEP) technique is the gold standard for detecting EFL. • We assessed the association of the forced oscillation technique (FOT) with NEP. • Respiratory system reactance at 5 Hz was identified as an independent predictor.
